I remember the Rhino. It’s the only revolver I ever saw that fired from the bottom chamber of the cylinder. I saw one at a gun show once. I never shot one but it just seems wrong.

I’m guessing but doesn’t the lowering of the barrel make the recoil have less climb?

It’s probably a great gun, why else would someone make something so hideous. Like the Steven Hawking of Guns.

Forty eight years ago, I saw a photo of a similar revolver made in the USSR for target shooting. It was in .38 spl and fired from the bottom of the cylinder.

I believe the magazine was GUNS Magazine.
